Adrenalin Rush Activities

View list of Adrenalin Rush Companies

New Zealand is undoubtedly the adventure capital of the world and as such has a number of unique adrenalin-rush activities not found elsewhere.

Sky Jump AucklandAerobatics, where you can experience the thrill of being upside down, in spins and loops, in a small manoeuvrable airplane, is one of the newer adrenalin experiences on offer.

Canyon Swing operates by placing you in a body harness before you freefall from the platform - flips, spins, twists - and then smoothly propels you in a huge arc back and forwards over the famous Shotover River Canyon, at speeds of up to 150kph.

Fly-by-Wire is a self-drive flying machine or "purpose built plane" attached by a solid cable to the main cable support network which spans the entire length of the valley. It flies in a figure 8 pattern inside a steep-sided canyon at speeds of up to 170kph.

Sky Jump is New Zealand's highest jump at 192 metres. It is a controlled Jump from Auckland's spectacular Sky Tower whereby you fall at approx. 75kph for around 16 seconds before slowing in the last few metres to land gently.

Skywire, New ZealandSkywire allows you to soar like a bird for over 3km up to 150m above beautiful native forest. Travelling both forwards and backwards at speeds of up to 100kph combined with a brilliant eco experience - this is truly unique.

Tanks for Everything allows those seeking a unique experience to actually drive and control a range of military vehicles on a purpose built all-terrain course.

Vertigo is a supervised climb up to the top of New Zealand's tallest building - the Sky Tower in Auckland. Enjoy from a height of 300metres, unrivalled views of Auckland. Suitable for all ages.

Zorbing originated in New Zealand. You will be strapped inside a clear plastic air-cushioned ball and rolled down a grass covered slope, reaching speeds of up to 50kph.
